Iona Prep Students Join “Hunger Walk” to Raise $17,000 for Hunger Relief

Iona Preparatory Lower School students from grades 2 through 8th grade joined in a “Hunger Walk” to raise a record $17,000, along with awareness, for hunger relief on October 23, 2020. The fundraiser is part of Iona Preparatory School’s mission to develop young men into moral and ethical leaders who are dedicated to Christian service. This year’s theme in school and the walk is “Kindness in our Community and Country,” displayed proudly on pennants student individually designed. Traditionally, students have solicited sponsorship for the laps they walk. This year because of COVID-19, students were kept in their grade-level groups for the walk. This long-standing Lower School tradition raises money to support the missions’ work and hunger relief efforts of the Christian Brothers in Peru. Photo by Iona Preparatory School
